This is a book about the extremes of every passion, including murder.
When Deputy Joseph Richard Quinn and three other veteran Harris County sheriff's deputies with guns drawn, burst into a southeast Houston apartment the night of September 17, 1998, searching for a black male with a gun, their shocking discovery in the back bedroom triggered a chain of events resulting in a June 26, 2003, U.S. Supreme Court decision in Lawrence v. Texas-that state laws criminalizing consensual, adult sodomy are unconstitutional.
Sex Appealed is an intriguing portrayal of the events surrounding that September night, and the aftermath. It is a nonfiction narrative of jealousy, risk, betrayal, ambition, political maneuvering, and murder. Sex Appealed re-counts the passionate devotion of an elite Ivy League team fielded by a New York-based, national homosexual rights organization, whose legal skill resulted in the high court's controversial 6-3 decision favoring Lawrence, and over-turning a 17-year Supreme Court precedent to the contrary.
